Tattoo Course Options
Overview We offer two training paths to become a professional tattoo artist: an intensive Full Course (8 days) for focused, hands-on immersion, and a Weekend Course structured as a comprehensive, mentorship-led program that progresses at the student’s pace. Both paths emphasize safety, professional standards, and real-world skills. This is a training program, not a formal employment apprenticeship.
